(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Lim Hyeong-seop = It was reported that President Lee Jae-myung had a dinner meeting with SK Group Chairman Choi Tae-won on the 20th.
At this meeting, it appears that a comprehensive discussion was held on the three major mega projects, including the Honam semiconductor cluster creation project being promoted by the government.
In particular, with some people recently saying that the United States is requesting investment in the semiconductor field as part of Korea's investment project in the United States, attention is focused on whether this topic was also discussed.
However, Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy Kim Jeong-kwan, who returned to Korea that day after visiting the United States, met with reporters at the airport and drew a line, saying, "There was no topic about semiconductors in the conversation with Minister Howard Rutnick (during this visit to the United States)."
The meeting between President Lee and Chairman Choi comes about a month after the ‘Artificial Intelligence (AI) Summit’ held in San Francisco, USA last month.
There is also speculation in the political world that President Lee will continue to meet with corporate heads such as Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-yong and LG Group Chairman Koo Kwang-mo.
Meanwhile, the Blue House showed a cautious attitude regarding the meeting between President Lee and Chairman Choi in the announcement that day, only mentioning, "It is difficult to confirm the private schedule."
